You asked for it, you got it!:-)

Currently available compilers for the platforms you name range in
quality from nice to very nice, and in price from free to inexpensive.
Have a look at any of the major Ada web sites for details on GNAT
(GNU Ada 95, which is _free_ and available for all the platforms
named above and many more) and other proprietary compilers, especially
the ObjectAda series from Thomson.

Indicative prices are on http://www.acm.org/sigada/education. These are
educational prices, but you'd be quite amazed at the single-copy commercial
prices these days. Contact the individual vendors for details.
